The simplest NIS configuration consists of a single NIS server and one or more clients. In this case, NIS server configuration involves the following steps:
1. Setting the NIS domain name.
2. Configuring and starting the server daemon, ypbind.
3. Initializing the NIS maps.
4. Starting the NIS password daemon.
5. Starting the NIS transfer daemon if you use slave servers.
6. Modifying the startup process to start the NIS daemons when the system reboots.
If your NIS configuration also utilizes slave servers, you also need to perform configuration steps on the slave servers.
